Once upon a time ..........

"The trouble with the world is that the stupid are very sure of themselves and the intelligent are full of doubt" - Bertrand Russell.

When I read 'ol Bert's golden words, the only thought that went through my mind is - Baby! You ain't see or heard nothing yet!

The ordinary man -- ahh! the mundane life of an ordinary man is something that needs to examined in minute detail. After all, what excitement could he have in life when all one does is wake up, get dressed, work, do more work, get sick working and go to sleep every single day of existance.

But then again, the ordinary man can find some solace from the life of an everyday I/T professional. Mmmmm --- I/T professional, software professional, software developer, qa engineer are some of the epithet's that are attached to individuals who toil behind the glass facades of the 21st century building. Yes, your average I/T pro is locked away in big edifices working on the latest and advanced programs that technology has on offer and it is here that he parts ways with the ordinary man as he gets his daily dose of the most outlandish chronicles of life.

And it is here that we ask all our I/t pro's to rise to this magnificient occasion and spread the tales of majestic existence.

Let the legend be told ......

Raja Kathakal ( Royal Stories )

Well, as this blog title says, it is all about royal stories. Stories which have been told to different people with subtle variations, but mostly consistent. Hard to believe and harder to disprove, these stories have remained an urban legend. They occur in far away places like Florida, Geneva, Dehradun, and closer home Trivandrum and our own Bengaluru (Bangalore for the uninitiated). Our aim is to collate the stories, relive the times when we used to laugh over it or discuss the strategies to bust a story. Hope you have as much fun reading this as we had in recounting it.

Let the stories unfold!!!
